Day 248 Swords of Iron – “Friends”

Chaim starts the video by saying that he’s glad to have friends and to be able to call his viewers friends.

He then asks the rhetorical question about whether America has Israel’s best interests in mind or if it has other considerations as well.

He cites several examples from the past that raise questions about this issue, including the Camp David Accords negotiated by US President Jimmy Carter in 1979, the poor handling of relations between Israel and Lebanon by the Reagen Administration in the 80s, Bill Clinton’s sponsorship of the disastrous Oslo Accords. He also cites the pressure to evacuate Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria that came during the George W. Bush administration and the thinly veiled tilt toward the Palestinians that was on display during the Obama Administration. Also notable in Obama’s record is the 2015 JCPOA, otherwise known as the Iran Nuclear Deal, which was a bad idea in general and particularly bad for Israel.

Finally, Chaim begins to describe the mixed bag that the Biden Administration has been, on the one hand defending Israel at the UN but also putting pressure on Israel to end the war before the objectives have been met. Chaim also asks, rhetorically, what must be happening behind closed doors if this is what we’re seeing in public.

Then, Chaim begins to contrast all of that with the public stands taken by former (and perhaps future) President Trump, giving Israel his full and unqualified support by moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and strongly opposing terrorism. But now, during his re-election campaign, there are some worrying signs that there might be a shift in that support during Trump’s potential second term.

With all of that having been said, Chaim concludes by saying that despite all the internal American political maneuvering, the truth is that the only thing that can save America at this point is if there is a revival there and a turning back to the God of Israel.

Chaim admits that this is what Israel needs to, and in this time when Aliyah to Israel is increasing and God is bringing His people back to the Land, it’s time to pray for revival in both America and Israel, and for that matter the entire world.

(Day 829) Swords of Iron – “Podcast with Dr. Mordechai Kedar, Middle East expert”


Shalom from the beautiful—and windy—Sea of Galilee!
Today, instead of my usual update from the front lines, I’ll be joined live on my weekly podcast by Prof. Dr. Mordechai Kedar.
Professor Dr. Kedar is a Middle East analyst like no other—arguably one of the foremost voices on Iran today. 
He is multi-lingual, and besides Hebrew and English and a few others he also understands Persian (Farsi) – the language of Iran.


(Day 828) Swords of Iron – “Imminent”



Things are not slowing down here. The US has confirmed advanced military plans against Iran, and regional forces—including Israel—are preparing. It’s very tense, palpable, tangible; you can taste the tension in the air.

(Day 827) Swords of Iron – “13,000 protesters Killed”


As we’re there in the mud and cold of Gaza, it’s clear there is no other option than expanding the fight beyond simply dismantling tunnels. These Palestinian militant terrorists refuse to disarm. They are regrouping, rearming, and rebuilding. When we block one tunnel, they dig another entrance. Their goal remains the same: to advance their terrorist, jihadist agenda.
